First because they are the lowest dust pad we have encountered by reducing dust by 60-90%. Plus the minimal dust you see is very easily removed with a simple sponge wash as it contains no steel fibre particles as in ALL OTHER pads.

Second they brake like an alligator right from cold (as good as Original pads or better) and just get better as they heat up.

This material is a Kevlar® fibre based brake compound enhanced with ceramic particles. If you have previously tried EBC redstuff

(pre-ceramic compound) this material is light years ahead. It lasts longer, it brakes better and is quieter. Being a hard wearing pad,

bed-in times can be as long as 1,600 kilometres and drivers must be patient until the pad takes up the shape of their disc (brake rotor).

This is a truly impressive fast road pad for repeated heavy braking. It emits far less dust than semi-metallic pads and has been proven

As EBC's flagship street brake pad material for prestige and faster cars, the 09 version on EBC Redstuff sets new standards

in brake performance. Redstuff has always been known for its low dust ability but the latest blend has greatly reduced the phenomenon

of pad "Pick up" or disc scoring and reduced dust even further. EBC Redstuff should be used at both front and rear for optimum balanced

brake performance.

EBC Yellowstuff - 4000 "R" Series - Full Race Pad

Ultra High Friction Pads for Race, Track day and Street Use.

EBC Yellowstuff is an Aramid fibre based brake compound with high brake effect form cold and is possibly one of the first ever compounds that can be used for STREET AND TRACK DRIVING. These pads do not require warm up but do get even stronger under the heat of hard driving.

These are not a low dust pad and if your desire is for a low dust premium street use pad, you should consider EBC Redstuff. EBC Yellowstuff is currently produced in two compound versions - DM1846 and DM1793, both of which have been used with some success in racing.

HOWEVER, for standard OEM brakes, as fitted to your car, there is no doubt that the DM1793 is getting better feedback, as it is slightly harder, slightly longer lasting and more appropriate for track day driving.If using a high efficiency aftermarket race calipers with 4, 6 or 8

piston set ups. the sheer efficiency might allow the use of 1846 compound. DM1846 is currently the choise of the majority of GT3 drivers

which are pretty serious competitors.

DIRECT CLUTCH RECOMMENDATION:

If you have any doubts about which compound to choose for your street and track combination pad, go for the 1793.

The most grippy pad in the EBC arsenal EBC Yellowstuff is a high friction pad for the driver who wants nothing but performance brakes.

Not only a high friction pad but very resistant to heat and loads of heavy braking means that Yellowstuff has been used with great

success in race cars and on high speed road vehicles alike.

Because of its huge heat range , the applications where EBC Yellowstuff

will deliver benefits range from fastest street use on higher horsepower sedans to Track day and Race use on most street based cars

and even as a brake upgrade on Trucks and SUV.

Yellowstuff is especially appreciated on Trucks for towing and heavy loads and where wheel and tyre oversized upgrades have been fitted.Yellowstuff is NOT rated as low dust and creates similar dust to OEM pads, if low dust is what you seek, Redstuff should be your choice for fast street use. Nominal friction coefficient 0.5.

EBC Bluestuff Racing Brake Pads.

For several years EBC Brakes has been developing its full race pads for cars called Bluestuff and after a final modification in 2009

is preparing to release this material known as Formula NDX in time for the 2010 season.

The NDX Formula is a harder and longer lasting pad than its stable mate the Yellowstuff compound and has been very successfully run on heavier cars including the Holden(Vauxhall) Monaro which weighs in at over 3600 lbs ( almost 1.7 tons) and as such is a much better test of the typical race car.

Whilst EBC Brakes Yellowstuff has worked out very well in Europe on Track day and short even closed circuit racing, its high friction characteristics cause it to wear quite quickly on heavier cars and longer races, making the Blue NDX grade the ideal upgrade.

PREPARATION & INSTALLATION

Ensure rotor surface is clean of all foreign materials and meets with the manufacturers minimum thickness requirements.

Avoid sudden braking for the first 100kms after fitting RDA Brake Pads to allow them to bed-in.

Correct bedding-in procedure is as follows:

Accelerate to 60 km/h and apply brakes with moderate to firm pressure and slow to 10km/h. Then accelerate back to 60km/h and repeat
